It's also possible for block of rows (thead, tfoot, tbody) and also
colgroups. I strongly recommend not to use div, not to use extra tables
or wrapping tables. You need none of that.
Interactive demo page on table column and table row collapse and
visibility in DOM 2 compliant browsers
http://www.gtalbot.org/DHTMLSection/TableRowColumnCollapse.html
DOM level 1 Dynamic table formatting

2 important issues:
- avoid border-collapsed table as much as possible because there are
right now too many bugs to consider in current modern browsers
- row (and/or rowgroup) collapsing is easier to code and a bit better
supported by modern browsers than/compared to column and colgroup
collapsing.
